The Yes Men Fix the World Page #10

---

of "The New York Times."

As you might have

guessed though,

- it's a fake.

We printed a paper

with the headlines

that we'd like to see.

So if these were

the headlines

that people were so excited

to read this morning,

let's make them happen.

Lili Taylor:

WE'RE GONNA HAVE

TO EXERCISE SOME MUSCLES

THAT WE EITHER DON'T HAVE

OR THAT HAVE ATROPHIED.

OR SOMETHING--

A CIVIC MUSCLE,

A THRIFTY MUSCLE,

A GENEROUS MUSCLE.

Medea Benjamin:

WE'VE GOT TO TAKE BACK

OUR GOVERNMENT.

MARCH INTO CITY HALL AND SAY,

"HERE, WE'VE GOT T SOLUTIONS."

Frances Fox Piven:

WE CAN THINK OF THE

DIFFERENT WAYS:

THAT WE CAN CONTRIBUTE

TO A MOVEMENT THAT SAYS

BUSINESS AS USUAL

IS UNACCEPTABLE,

BECAUSE PEOPLE:

ARE BEING HUR AND WE'RE NOT GOING

TO PLAY THE ROLE--

THE SUBSERVIENT,

ROUTINE ROLE:

THAT WE USUALLY PLAY.

- LET'S GO!

- WE'RE GOING, WE'RE GOING.

MAKE CHANGE HAPPEN.

PUT YOUR EFFORT ON THE LINE

TO MAKE SOMETHING HAPPEN.

AND THAT'S WHAT,

KINDA, WE DID HERE.

AND, YOU KNOW, MAYBE--

IT'S WHAT...

YEAH, IT'S KIND OF, YEAH.

- OH BOY!

- NO, I KNOW, YEAH!

AND IF A FEW PEOPLE

AT THE TOP CAN MAKE

THE BAD NEWS HAPPEN,

THEN WHY CAN'T ALL

OF US AT THE BOTTOM

GET TOGETHER:

AND MAKE THE GOOD NEWS

HAPPEN FOR A CHANGE?

I MEAN, FOR REAL?
